Podcasts about resting

As part of an ongoing series of enlightenment practices, this meditation, inspired by Adyashanti, invites you to let your human heart be soaked in the presence of your spiritual heart, allowing it to restore and reorient your whole being to completeness and wholeness. This meditation can be used in the morning, at bedtime, or on the spot in the course of your day. The practices build on each other, so you can listen consecutively, but if there is one in particular that speaks to you, feel free to stick with it. Based on the teachings of Adyashanti, they can be used alone or as a companion to his audio series, The 30-Day Wake Up Challenge, or his book, The Direct Way: 30 Practices to Evoke Awakening. In some cases, the meditations are also loosely inspired by the teachings of Andrew Holecek, Pema Chodron, and Eckhart Tolle.  I hope you enjoy.Audio by Eric Fischer. Support the showHost: Tess CallahanSubstack: Writers at the WellInterview Podcast: Writers at the WellMeditations on Insight TimerMeditations on YouTubeTess's novels: https://tesscallahan.com/Music: Christopher Lloyd Clarke.Audio Editing: Eric Fischer of Audi-Refined.com By tapping "like" and "follow" you help others find the show.

Grandpa Bill shares:No matter where you are or what your day holds, let's take just a few moments to connect with ourselves, to find that peaceful core within. This is a gift you give to you.First, find a quiet space. Take a moment to settle in. It doesn't have to be perfect, just a spot where you feel comfortable and can minimize any distractions for the next few minutes. If you're able, perhaps close your eyes gently, or just soften your gaze downwards.Now, let's set an intention. Before we even begin, what do you want from this brief pause? Is it a feeling of deeper relaxation? A clearer sense of focus for what's next? Maybe it's preparing your mind for peaceful sleep, or simply finding a moment of calm in a busy day. Whatever it is, just gently hold that intention in your mind.And now, just listen. Allow the sounds to wash over you. You might notice the gentle hum of the binaural beats in the background. Just let those frequencies guide you. There's nothing you need to do, nothing you need to fix, nowhere else you need to be. Just be present with the sound.As you listen, bring your awareness to your breath. Feel the gentle rise and fall of your chest or abdomen with each inhale and exhale. Don't try to change your breath, just notice it. It's always there, a steady rhythm within you.Imagine each inhale bringing in a sense of calm, of peace, filling every part of your being. And with each exhale, release any tension, any worries, any thoughts that aren't serving you right now. Just let them float away like clouds in the sky.Feel your body relaxing, from the top of your head, down through your shoulders, your arms, your hands. Feel your back and torso softening, your hips sinking comfortably. Relax your legs and your feet. Every part of you is settling deeper into this moment of peace.The binaural beats are gently guiding your mind, helping you find a sense of harmony. You might feel a subtle shift, a quietening of the chatter, a deepening of your inner calm. This is your mind and body working together, finding their natural balance.You are cultivating your inner 'Silver Streaker' – that vibrant, resilient, peaceful part of you that's always ready to move forward with grace and ease.Just a few more breaths here, allowing yourself to simply be. Resting in this stillness, this harmony.(Pause for 10-15 seconds of quiet listening to the binaural beats.)Now, gently bring your awareness back to the room, to your surroundings. Wiggle your fingers and toes. Take a slightly deeper breath. And when you're ready, slowly open your eyes.Carry this sense of calm, this mind-body harmony, with you as you continue your day. Remember, this peaceful space is always available to you, just a breath and a listen away.#MindBodyHarmony,#BinauralBeats,#SilverStreakers,#GrandpaBill,#HolisticHealth,#WorkoutsForGeriatrics,#BrainWaves,#SoundHealing,#Consciousness#HealthyAging,#WellnessJourney,#MentalClarity,#StressRelief,#MeditationForBeginners,#Neuroscience,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#KidsFrom1To92,#BillHolt8792,Creative Solutions for Holistic Healthcare

A real-time invitation to pause, reflect, and integrate. In this special mid-year episode,  we offer you the spaciousness and tools to reconnect with your intentions, acknowledge your growth, and mindfully marinate in what matters most.  We reflect openly on our guiding words for the year—how they've supported us, challenged us, and shaped our journeys so far.  With humor, honesty, and heart, we invite you to slow down and notice what's working, what's shifted, and what your future self will thank you for. This is an imperfect, spontaneous practice of self-kindness—and a gentle reminder that true healing happens not just through action but through thoughtful integration. Pearls of Wisdom: Reflecting mid-year is a powerful way to integrate growth and move forward with clarity and intention. Questions like “What have I done well?” and “What's bringing me joy?” help retrain our brains toward positive attention and away from perfectionism. Your words of the year—whether you remember all of them or just one—can serve as wise, compassionate guides when revisited with openness. Resting, in all its forms, is not a pause from progress—it is progress. You don't have to answer every question, or reflect perfectly; this is about practicing awareness with kindness. Reflection Questions: What have I done well? What has gone well? What is working well? What's bringing you joy, delight, or fun? What have you loved so far this year? What will your future self thank you for spending more time on in the next six months? Allow yourself to answer only what resonates and let the rest marinate. Let this be a moment to reset with kindness. Stay until the end for a grounding mindful moment of reflection—an opportunity to fully pause, breathe, and let the insights of this episode settle gently into your heart.     If this episode resonated with you and you're longing to explore your own healing, reflection, or transformation journey, I would love to support you.  Join me for a retreat in 2025 while there are still a few spots left: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/retreats.

Breathe in as you relax into this calming meditation led by Julie Potiker. She completes the meditation with her poem, "Whispers of a Fifth Force".Whispers of a Fifth Force, by Julie PotikerIn Idaho's early morning hush,I settle into the Adirondack chair by the fire pit,fast running river less than a pickle-ball court away,my slippered feet rest on the cool back of a boulder,smooth and steady beneath me.Above, the Aspen leaves shimmer—green coins rustling their soft applausein the mountain breeze.A plump American Robin bounces a spindly branch nearby. Gravity holds me gently,as it always has,the known forces humming their familiar song:electromagnetism weaving light across the sky,strong and weak nuclear threads binding the world within. Resting my head on the chair, I contemplate Far beyond this stillness,Bennu drifts—its ancient body charting paths we can measure,paths we can question.Physicists tilt their heads,listening for the quiet slip of anomaly,searching for a fifth force hidden in the mathematics. So far, Bennu holds its silence.But Apophis approaches—another messenger tumbling closer,another chance to findwhat might have always been there. Since the 1980s they have wondered—Could it be anti-gravity?Could it be quintessence?A hidden thread explaining dark energy, or light dark mattera secret folded into the fabricof everything we thought we knew. I breathe in the pine-sweet air,feel the steady earth beneath my feet,The cool breeze gently touches my face—and in the rustling leaves above,the universe whispers:there may yet be more.Find out more about using mindfulness in everyday life through Julie's books, "SNAP: From Calm to Chaos", and "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm in the Midst of Chaos".

This meditation scans through the body – arriving in the foreground with sounds, feelings and sensations, like the surface waves of the sea coming and going. And in the background, experiencing an alert inner stillness – a vast presence from which all activity pours forth.

If I Can Just Touch Him: Resting in the Presence of God Today's Homily reflects on two Scripture passages . . . . . . a vision of Jacob at Bethel and the Gospel story of the raising of the official's daughter and the healing of the woman with the hemorrhage. The Homily begins by exploring the nature of a shrine, emphasizing Jacob's recognition of God's presence and the spiritual importance of resting in a holy place. Jacob's dream of a ladder connecting heaven and earth becomes a symbol of God's grace descending and the soul ascending. In the Catholic tradition, this ladder is often identified with Mary, who brought Christ into the world and continues to be a spiritual bridge between heaven and earth. The Homily then turns to the Gospel, highlighting the deep faith of the Jewish official who believes Jesus can restore his dead daughter, and the desperate yet confident faith of the woman who believes that even touching Jesus' garment can heal her. Their stories emphasize the transformative power of physical contact with the Lord. This culminates in the sacrament of the Eucharist, where the faithful come forward to be physically touched by Christ, receiving healing and grace. All the faithful are urged to rest and make a true thanksgiving after communion, allowing the grace of Christ's touch to fully penetrate their lives. How? Listen more to this Meditation Media.

The Lord gives us his goodness, but we never fully receive it. We see it as it comes to us, but so much of life calls us away so quickly. We end up laying it aside or only receiving it partially. Jacob in this reading shows us something different because he rests in this place. -------------------------------------------------------------------- The Woman with an Issue of Blood: French Painter: James Tissot: 1886 This painting resides at The Brooklyn Museum. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Gospel Reading: Matthew 9: 18-26 First Reading: Genesis 28: 10-22

FIND RESTMonday's Nugget with Pastor Shane July 7, 2025The Bible says, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

He makes me lie down in green pastures. . . . — Psalm 23:2 It is a busy season as I write this short devotional message. My list of responsibilities has increased lately, and I have less open time than I would like. Sheep have a difficult time pacing themselves as well. They need a guide who can provide them with a life-giving cadence. The psalm writer found that with the Lord as his shepherd, he was not driven but made to stop and rest. Rest is a part of the Lord's kingdom rhythm. All who are within God's care are invited to work diligently for six days and then rest in him on the seventh because that is the best way to live. While resting, we sheep are encouraged to trust that whatever tasks we haven't accomplished or plans we haven't completed will be covered by the one who promises that we will lack nothing. Resting is one of those invitations that is also a command. Rest! Stopping our labor is a concrete way of showing that we trust the shepherd to make good on his promises to care for us. This is not easy in today's work-driven culture, so the testimony of a rested sheep can actually be quite powerful. Where in your life might you be invited to slow down? Good Shepherd, help us to rest in you, trusting that you have us in the palm of your loving hand. Thank you for giving us this confidence. Amen.

Yesterday, I saw the full circle—18 years of pain, fear, burnout, and spiritual warfare brought into light.I woke up in peace. No alarms. No stimming. No screams.My once nonverbal son—the one who bolted, screamed, couldn't tolerate showers or car rides—brought me tea in bed. I was reading the Bible. Just sitting. Resting.

In this episode, I am calling time on the nonsense that needing a break means you're lazy, weak, or somehow letting the side down. Honestly, if I had a pound for every introvert who has felt guilty for needing to recharge, I'd be recording this from my Tuscan villa.   So let's straighten this out. I'm unpacking the difference between rest, recharge, and replenishment; because yes, they are different. And I am inviting you to embrace a mindset that swaps shame for strategy. My aim is that you walk away with a new mantra, practical tips, and hopefully, a deep sigh of relief that yes, you are allowed to pause; and no, you don't need permission.   ** Key Points **   Resting doesn't always mean recharging. Guilt out, gratitude in Energy need are not optional   #PowerOfSilence #Introverts #FlourishingIntroverts   *** Resources *** Visit https://hub.flourishingintroverts.com/resourcesp for tools and resources mentioned during the podcast.  

Sermon: Resting in ChristSpeaker: Pastor Tom WilsonText: Matthew 11:25-30Date: June 22, 2025...

Welcome back to The Psychology Sisters unfiltered, where we chat all things being human, with a mix of clinical insight, real talk, and a few chaotic tangents.In today's episode, we're exploring something that feels especially needed right now: softness. What does it mean to go soft in a world that's constantly asking us to toughen up, keep going, and stay informed, even when it all feels like a lot?We start with what it means to feel alive, not just functioning, but actually alive in your body, your joy, and your presence. Then we dive into the weirdness of the current world climate — from global conflict to digital burnout — and how to look after yourself without disconnecting entirely. And finally, we unpack the Soft Girl Era, not as an aesthetic, but as a nervous system rebellion. Resting, feeling, slowing down, and saying no? That's the real power move.So, if you've been feeling flat, frantic, or just deeply tired — this one's for you.Aimee + KatYou can find more of us here: Our Online Psychology practice: Did you know we have online appointments available with our amazing therapists Lisa or Maddie.

A photo of the artist: Judith Simonian with Charles Yuen Many of Simonian's works in the exhibition at JJ MURPHY Gallery are still lifes, such as “Marysia's Salon” (2024), which was inspired by a visit to a Polish beauty parlor in her East Village neighborhood. “Bottle Symphony in Red” (2023) recalls Giorgio Morandi. Whereas Morandi's still lifes are a delicate arrangement of vases, jugs, bowls, urns, and bottles, painted in muted colors—whites, browns, and tans—set against a neutral background, Simonian bombards our senses through her use of high-intensity reds, pinks, blue-greens, grays, blacks, and yellow ochre. In “Inside Outside” (2023), the artist similarly portrays a room as an expressionistic whirlwind of vivid colors. Simonian's paintings deal with intervals, or the spaces between points. Simonian's still lifes often open up an interior space to an exterior one. In “Marysia's Salon,” a photograph tacked on the wall suggests the world outside. “Bobby Pins of Manhattan” (2023-24) provides a glimpse of the city skyline through the window, including the landmark Empire State Building. “Cat in the Lamp” (2024) depicts a black cat inside an illuminated yellow lampshade in front of a large window that overlooks water. Simonian employs careful framing to create meaning. It is possible to view several of her landscape paintings as political allegories. In "Greener Pastures" (2025), the shimmering image of the Statue of Liberty appears to be a mirage, while green brushstrokes seem to hint at water on deck or maybe even a school of fish. "Resting on Her Side" (2024) depicts rocky terrain and the bleak spectacle of a capsized ship. Judith Simonian has had solo exhibitions of her work at 1GAP, Brooklyn; Edward Thorp Gallery, New York City; and John Davis Gallery in Hudson, NY. Her work has been shown in numerous museums, including The New Museum, NYC; MoMA/PS1, NYC; Islip Museum, NY; Montclair Art Museum, NJ; Weatherspoon Art Museum, NC; San Francisco Museum of Art, CA; Santa Barbara Museum of Art, CA; Newport Harbor Art Museum, CA; and the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art, WI. Simonian has been awarded many prestigious honors, including a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship, an Adolph and Esther Gottlieb Foundation Individual Support Grant, and a National Endowment for the Arts Grant. She received her BA and MA degrees from California State University, Northridge. The artist lives and works in New York City.

I see you sister... Scrolling on your phone searching for answers to WHY you feel so crappy allll the time…. Looking up things like: WHY do my joints always hurt, is this a sign of menopause, why is my brain so foggy and why am I always so exhausted? What are the best supplements for women over 40? Before you know it, 1 hr is gone and your stress levels are higher than when you started. (Ask me how I know.) When it comes right down to it, You secretly and desperately WANT to rest cuz you KNOW that would help a lot but HOW? With your schedule and life… how can you really get the restorative rest your body is crying for? You may ask yourself and God: How do I find rest when I'm so overwhelmed? Why can't I focus when I try to pray?  Is my constant exhaustion a spiritual attack? Lord why can't I HEAR YOU??? It can become a big spiral. Stay til the end to see my own struggle with this… but First, you are not alone and you are not crazy. Changes ARE happening inside your peri-menopausal/menopausal body and it's all gonna be ok. You have a heavenly Father who desires to walk this road WITH you. Hand in hand. Leading you, guiding you and shepherding you.

This is a big component we work through in coaching cuz we address ALL areas of wellness: Physical, mental and spiritual. So I am going to share 3 questions you can ask yourself that will help you to dial in deeper into this topic of hearing God's voice.  Especially as you are leaning closer to Him for your whole health.  I pray this brings peace to you today!

Engines idle, passengers scurry, and announcements echo through the cavernous space. Resting on a comfortable bench, back to a sunny window, you are content to observe the activity, smiling fondly as excited children scamper by, eager to ride. Your journey is internal, to a tranquil space only you can find. ---

In this episode, I'm talking about something so many of us struggle with but rarely say out loud — the guilt that comes with rest.From being raised in hustle culture to feeling like we always have to “earn” our break… it's exhausting. I'm sharing how I'm working through it, mindset shifts that help, and reminders you need to hear if you've ever felt guilty for slowing down.You don't owe the world constant productivity — you owe yourself peace.Podcast IG https://www.instagram.com/veronicaramospodcast/My IGhttps://www.instagram.com/realtor_veronicaramos/

Dear friends, I hope this message finds you well.Are you in a storm right now? Remember, God has a proven process that He graciously gives us, empowering us to overcome every storm. Trust in this process and rest in the assurance God provides. Here is the process of God for us to follow in the storms of life.I am sharing what I learned and applying it to encourage you on our shared journey. Your role is crucial, as you, in turn, share this insight with others, spreading the light of hope. The entrance of Your word gives light.Tony

What does it actually mean to live in a place of rest? How do you really unplug from the business of the world to plug into the life of God? Pastor Jake challenges us to live differently than our culture by adopting a rhythm of rest. We pray you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to this message?

With nearly four decades of experience in both ministry and business, Pastor Scott Purkey brings a wealth of practical wisdom and a fresh perspective to the saturated conversation on leadership. In this episode, Pastor Scott shares his non-traditional journey to ministry, the importance of setting boundaries, and how prioritizing rest and rhythm transformed both his leadership and ministry impact. Along the way, he discovered a guiding truth: “Resting is not quitting but trusting.”A passionate advocate for simplifying leadership, Pastor Scott offers an insightful counter-cultural strategy of removing complexity, not adding more, and letting go of what no longer serves the mission. Drawing from his own leadership experiences and the historical wisdom of figures like Winston Churchill, he outlines actionable questions that every leader and layperson should ask of themselves and one another. His message illustrates that good leadership is both top-down and bottom-up.He also tackles the hidden obstacles that quietly sabotage a leader's development and growth: resentment, entitlement, and over-extension. Pastor Scott reminds us that leaders must come up for air, and that without rest and rhythm, even the strongest leaders will drown. His call is clear: lead with clarity and courage, and love the people more than the goals.Support the showTransforming the workplace one Bible study at a time - DONATE today!

The breath can be our gateway into the boundless awareness that holds all life. This meditation begins with a breath that calms our nervous system, and then invites a relaxed presence with the breath and sensation that open us to the “universe breathing.” Resting in awareness, we realize the wakefulness, peace and vitality of pure presence.

As some of you have noticed and commented on, I haven't been as active in releasing podcast episodes. A few listeners were worried about me and, for your concern, I am grateful. I plan to get back to more timely podcast releases, with quite a few on my schedule, but in the meantime, I will re-run some podcast episodes so my podcast listeners will know I haven't disappeared … and to that end I will be releasing 2 early episodes: Episode 11 and Episode 12 on koans. I decided to re-release these two episodes on koans as a double episode for Episode 116, because I've been practicing with koans for a few weeks now, through the guidance of Henry Shukman and his meditation app, "The Way." As an additional note, Henry will be joining me on the podcast in July. I am quite excited to have him as a guest. Something I wanted to share with you about my recent practice with koans. To frame it, it's as if my life after falling on the ice in December and spending a couple of days in the hospital, shook the puzzle pieces I frame my reality in and left all the pieces in a heap at the bottom of the puzzle box. I started my second book, Living Life As It Is, and it seemed as if a frame on life was coming into view. But then, other odd health challenges appeared and altered my ability to do some things and caused enforced rest. The last of those was the flu/virus thing that was like a whack on the back of my head, saying, "Slow down. Stop. Rest." This time corresponded with my koan practice and the latest fascist escapades of our new "regime." The more I sunk into koan practice, the more all of life seemed a bit hazy—without definition and without anything to grasp on to as something I didn't or did like. Things just were. Everything without definition. Some of the koans I've been working with are "Not knowing is most intimate", "A bowl of rice, a bucket of water", "How do you go straight on a road with 99 turns?" Sitting with those helped create a sense of security and OK-ness in my new hazy world. A not knowing that feels like knowing everything in a non-conceptual way. A bowl of rice. What else? That's enough. And 99 turns … like my teacher, Rev. Gyomay Kubose taught, "Every day, one thing after another." So enjoy the re-release of the two koan episodes and in the meantime, I encourage you all to see how you can not grasp and unhook from things you think you need to hold tightly to. Think about the ways you can care for yourselves. It can be easy to get lost in the demands of daily life and the overwhelming noise of the dysfunctional and crazy-scary reality we are now living in.   Become a patron to support this podcast and get special member benefits, including a membership community, a virtual sangha, and a subscription to my Everyday Buddhism Substack:https://www.patreon.com/EverydayBuddhism     Check out my Substack for ongoing chapter releases of my new serial book, Living Life As It Is and the weekly podcast, Words From My Teachers: https://wendyshinyohaylett.substack.com/   If this podcast has helped you understand Buddhism or help in your everyday life, consider making a one-time donation here: https://donorbox.org/podcast-donations   Support the podcast through the affiliate link to buy the book, Everyday Buddhism: Real-Life Buddhist Teachings & Practices for Real Change: Buy the book, Everyday Buddhism   Support the podcast and show your support through the purchase of Everyday Buddhism merch: https://www.zazzle.com/store/everyday_buddhism   NOTE: Free shipping on ALL (unlimited) items (Everyday Buddhism merch or gifts from other stores) if you join Zazzle Plus for $19.95/year: https://www.zazzle.com/zazzleplus

"No matter how busy life gets, take time to rest in God's presence. Let Him cradle you in His love and peace. Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and let His presence restore your soul. You'll find that this rest is not just a pause from life's demands but a source of true renewal and peace."Leave a comment: https://incourage.me/?p=252930--Discover new ways to worship the Lord with DaySpring!
